Chapter 739 Germany's Main Attack Direction

This Junkers-290 is just the first one. Behind it, larger groups of aircraft have flown one after another.

In this case, the anti-aircraft guns below are sparse.

The troops were mobilized in large numbers, including the anti-aircraft artillery, and a number of them were also mobilized, and the remaining troops here were temporarily recruited from the rear, because the mobilization was so rushed today, and many people were not even assigned. New post!

A lot of anti-aircraft artillery positions were vacated like this, and only the ships in the port began to rain bullets into the sky. Unfortunately, the shooting height is limited, and they simply cannot hit the Junkers-290 in the sky.

High-altitude bombing, the use of radio guidance to greatly improve the accuracy of hits, to achieve the purpose of point attack, whether it is strategy or specific tactics, Germany is at the forefront of the world!

Like now.

The BL9.2 233mm coastal gun, the main artillery guard in Plymouth, was dealt a devastating blow!

Those bombs flying in the sky are like eyes, guarding the anti-aircraft artillery positions next to the coastal artillery. They were originally intended to hit the bombers in the sky, but when the bombs flew, they immediately changed. The muzzle began to shoot at the flying bomb.

Unfortunately, it is not easy to hit a free-falling bomb, especially this kind of bomb can change direction in the middle!

"Boom!" The 233mm coastal cannon erupted with a loud noise, shaking the sky and the earth, and when the other people looked over there with frightened eyes, they saw the place where the coastal cannon was located. The mountain has disappeared!

The bomb dropped by Germany detonated the ammunition next to the coast gun! It's the same as the explosion of the turret of a battleship! The entire mountain was cut down by dozens of meters! The power makes people smell and change color!

"No, I don't want to die." A soldier with a gun, his body was shaking, obviously frightened by the explosion over there, he actually stood up, shouted loudly, and then dropped the gun, he was going to run backwards.

"Come back!" shouted the platoon leader.

He didn't look back, clearly frightened.

"Tututu." The submachine gun in the platoon leader's hand opened fire. The guy who wanted to escape had more than a dozen holes behind him. His body fell forward and his head was turned back. Who is firing, his eyes are wide open, and he can't rest his eyes.

"Stay in your own position!" The platoon leader was a veteran who shot and killed deserters on the battlefield without blinking an eye. When he was in Verdun, if there was no such method, the battle line would have collapsed long ago.

The first round of German bombers destroyed all the main large-caliber coastal defense artillery here!

Sir Nelty-Ramsey was returning to his headquarters when the bombers arrived, and he knew immediately that something was wrong.

Why did the Germans suddenly come to their side to bomb?

All along, the Germans have been flying directly from Calais to the United Kingdom, various bases in the south, and the capital, London, and so on.

The Germans have no interest in Plymouth.

After all, there are not many warships here. The important British warships are all in the bases on the west coast. The frigates of several thousand tons are better than nothing.

The shipyard here is indeed starting to build new warships. However, many people are not optimistic. It will take at least a year to build a new warship. Maybe it will be cheaper for the Germans in the end. , so, the Germans will not bomb here, this is almost a conclusion.

Especially now, when the German army has been fighting in Dover for more than ten hours, when a large number of fighter planes are fighting over the Dover Strait, the main direction of the German attack has almost been determined.

Now, what are the Germans doing here? An ominous premonition enveloped Ramsey's heart, and he couldn't help but say: "Quick, report to London, the Germans may land in our Plymouth!"

When the emergency report from the Plymouth Base was delivered to the Prime Minister's Office, Churchill had just gotten off the plane and returned to his Downing Street office. Here, the first report he received was actually from Plymouth!

"Sir Ramsey is really too careful. The Germans are fighting fiercely in Dover. How could they land at Plymouth, which is nearly 400 kilometers away from London!" Churchill just shook his head.

"Sir Ramsey would like to send a large number of fighters, especially Spitfires, over Plymouth to help them repel the German bombers," said the aide.

Originally, Plymouth belonged to District 10, which was different from District 11 to which London belonged. However, the last night bombing by the Germans blew up the fighter forces in District 11. Therefore, under the intervention of Churchill , General Dawding had to mobilize fighters from other areas to the 11th area where the war was most likely to break out.

In this way, there will be fewer fighters left in the 10th area, especially the best-performing Spitfire fighters. There is only one squadron in the 10th area. Because the Spitfire factory was blown up, they will not even think about it within a few months. Produce a qualified Spitfire.

Sir Ramsey wants London to mobilize fighter jets, it's a joke, didn't you see the battle over Dover?

"Tell Ramsey to let him defend Plymouth. This is an order. At the same time, don't let him think about any reinforcements. His armed forces are enough." Churchill said: "Bring me the Dover report, why? Until now, it is still impossible to wipe out all the German troops who landed? What are they doing?"

Now, Churchill did not expect the seriousness of the situation at all, including all the senior commanders of the Empire present, did not expect, after all, the Dover War is going on at the most intense juncture, and the two sides have used so many armed forces , the Germans must be in a hurry and want to push forward.

And now, the Germans actually went to bomb Plymouth? That must be a move away from the mountain, wanting to split up our own forces to support Plymouth and reduce the pressure on this side.

You won't be fooled by yourself!

After receiving Churchill's reprimand, Sir Ramsey stared nervously at the sky, hundreds of Junkers-88 dive bombers and countless HS129 attack aircraft were flying towards them!

"Tell London again that Plymouth is the main direction for the Germans, and we will fight to the last man!" Sir Ramsey's eyes were extremely cold.

He has seen through the German plan, and attacked Dover with great fanfare. The real target is his own side! The most unfortunate thing is that until now, Churchill has not yet judged it.

That Cyric is really terrifying. Every time he uses his troops, he is superb. It is really sad to be his enemy.
